Went to my web browser and logged in but no where does it show to go to Newsmax plus. Just shows my account info. 
What other steps did you take? 

Thanks

So, after a few days of fruitless frustration, this afternoon I deleted the old NEWSMAX from my ROKU and then added NEWSMAX back to my ROKU. I now have NEWSMAX +. During this process, I lost a few existing apps. Not sure why, but I just reinstalled the missing apps, and all is good for now.

Here's how I got the new app for Newsmax+

Go to SETTINGS then to SYSTEM then to SOFTWARE UPDATE

It updated my Newsmax app to the new Newsmax +

It isn't called Newsmax Plus but when you click on the app it will be the updated version
